Slope #= 0#
y-intercept #=4/7#

Explanation:

slope is the change in #y# divided by a corresponding change in #x#. Since for the given equation the value of #y# does not change (it's change #=0#); the slope is #0#.
#y=4/7# is a horizontal line.

y-intercept is the value of #y# when #x=0#. For the given equation #y=4/7# for all values of #x#; therefore the y-intercept is #4/7#
